Умираю от неизвестной болезни. Тело как резина. Врачи убили меня

Overview

The video is a first-person account by 29-year-old Artem Ovlakov (from Kaliningrad), who claims he is dying from a rare or unknown physical disease. He alleges that multiple doctors refused to properly investigate and instead misdiagnosed him as having a mental illness, which he says led to harmful treatment and significant delays.

Claimed Medical Condition and Progression

Ovlakov describes severe, progressive symptoms over approximately three years:

• Intestinal dysfunction (starting around August 2020)

  • constipation
  • mucus
  • later worsening gastrointestinal problems

• Gastroenterology outcomes

  • After repeated gastroenterology care, he says he was left with a diagnosis of “irritable bowel syndrome”, which he claims did not improve his condition.

• Severe stomach problems

  • culminating in suspected gastrostasis (his description: the stomach cannot evacuate food)
  • dehydration, poor absorption, and systemic weakness

• Neurologic / neuromuscular changes

  • loss of sensitivity along the spine
  • muscle weakness
  • softening/sagging of muscles
  • impaired breathing
  • dizziness
  • loss of sensation
  • He repeatedly emphasizes imagery such as “everything becomes like rubber” and that tissues lose sensitivity.

• Physical deterioration and loss of mobility

  • difficulty walking
  • difficulty turning his neck
  • swallowing/choking sensations
  • cartilage/joint “crunching”
  • eventual inability to sit or move normally

Claimed testing signals and dismissive handling

He claims that some tests sometimes showed inflammation or abnormalities, such as:

• colonoscopy showing inflammation
• imaging consistent with gastrostasis
• later MRI showing spinal disc protrusions and a hernia

However, he believes the results were interpreted or treated dismissively, rather than leading to thorough follow-up.

Key Alleged Misdiagnoses and Treatment Refusals

Rheumatology / Sjögren’s disease diagnosis (denied by him)

• He reports that doctors found rheumatologic antibodies and diagnosed Sjögren’s disease based on dryness symptoms.
• He says biopsy/tests did not confirm Sjögren’s, but that he was still given hormonal treatment.
• He claims this worsened his condition—describing temperature rises and extreme weakness.

“Mental” framing (psychotherapist / somatization)

As symptoms escalated and physical causes remained unclear, he says doctors increasingly framed his condition as mental illness, including:

• hypochondriac disorder
• somatoform (somatophoric) disorder
• “stenoneurotic syndrome” (as diagnosed during later hospitalization)

He alleges that psychiatrists/psychotherapists:

• relied on neurologists’ notes
• did not properly consider his history
• repeatedly prescribed antidepressants and tranquilizers

Harmful medication and hospital care (as he describes it)

In neurology, he reports being given drugs including haloperidol and other sedating medications, which he says caused further muscle impairment (worsening due to side effects).

He also alleges:

• being deprived of a walker
• being treated with indifference
• receiving little or no meaningful investigation or follow-through

He further claims doctors refused or delayed:

• genetic testing
• additional advanced investigations
• referral/transfer to research centers (or only partially followed them)

Escalation Toward Emergencies and ICU-Level Worsening (According to Him)

He describes repeated movement between departments/hospitals:

• regional hospitals/workups (GI, neurology, rheumatology)
• intensive care due to respiratory muscle involvement
• admission to a hospital in St. Petersburg for infection-related reasons (Botkin Hospital), which he says was ineffective, followed by discharge

He claims that as he deteriorated further—including vomiting blood and progressive sensory loss—staff:

• stopped visiting
• dismissed his complaints
• documented him as mentally ill rather than continuing to search for an organic cause

Claims About Documentation and “Proof by Testing” Failure

Ovlakov argues that:

• biopsies were either superficial or interpreted without deep enough examination at the cellular level
• results sent to experts in Moscow did not produce an actionable diagnosis
• MRI findings came late, and new abnormalities appeared rapidly—something he interprets as evidence of a progressive physical disorder being ignored

Financial/Administrative Barriers and a Suspected Scam

• He says he attempted to seek treatment abroad (he mentions Israel, linked to St. Petersburg connections).
• He claims the cost was far beyond his means—millions of rubles—making it financially impossible.
• He also alleges that a friend/ex-contact arranged a path through Lithuania, collected money, and took his passport.
• He says the passport was later lost or “pawned,” preventing access.

Final Argument and Conclusion

Ovlakov’s central claim is that:

• the healthcare system in his region labeled him as mentally ill early, which
  • blocked referrals
  • delayed genetic and advanced workups
  • resulted in ineffective or harmful management while his body deteriorated

He says outside his region, a professor/genetic/neurologic opinion suggests a “multisystem genetic” or systemic connective-tissue-like disorder—involving issues such as:

• soft tissue integrity
• skin/vessel integrity
• impaired reflexes due to sensory loss

He presents the video as a farewell/warning testimony, calling for accountability and stating that negligent/dismissive doctors should lose the ability to practice.
